[Intro]
For Four Measures
[Verse 1]
Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling,
Calling for you and for me
See, on the portals, He s waiting and watching,
Watching for you and for me.
[Chorus]
Come home, come home,
Ye who are weary, come home!
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling,
Calling, O sinner, come home!
[Instrumental]
( Four Measures)
[Verse 2]
Time is now fleeting, the moments are passing,
Passing from you and from me
Shadows are gathering, deathbeds are coming,
Coming for you and for me.
[Chorus]
Come home, come home,
Ye who are weary, come home!
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling,
Calling, O sinner, come home!
[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
O for the wonderful love He has promised,
Promised for you and for me!
Though we have sinned, He has mercy and pardon,
Pardon for you and for me.
[Chorus]
Come home, come home,
Ye who are weary, come home!
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling,
Calling, O sinner, come home!
Calling poor sinner, come home

Come home
